Milk Dust NZ

16/04/2023

Well it’s been a very long and laborious project but we are finally getting somewhere! 👏🏻
Our lab is almost finished now and we have quite a fair bit of admin and logistical things to work out now 📚 🖊️
We appreciate those who have waited for us to get up and running! I don’t think we thought it would take this long but here we are..
Between Ben working full time as an engineer and me a part time nurse as well as trying to survive life with a hectic toddler, we are trying our hardest we promise! Not to mention trying to sell our house and move closer to our lab.
Hopefully not long now 🙌🏻 we will keep you all updated and thanks again for all your support and questions coming through ❤️
Ps. Look how pretty our freeze dryer is!

Shout out to for our incredible decal 🥰

Solids Pack ✨

We are thinking bibs, bibs and BIBS! Perhaps some cutlery, plate/bowl, drink bottle/sippy cup, a messy mat, a fruit mesh feeder, a silicone feeder and some reusable pouches 🥣

What do you think? ✨

Online store but take it one step further… PERINATAL GIFT PACKS (obviously going to work on a more catchy name 🙈)

Everything you need to gift someone for each stage of the parenting journey.. all in one place!

Our breast feeding pack is in the works but so far included are pumps to collect all that liquid gold. We are also thinking of ni**le balm, Silverettes, some snacky snacks, collection bags and more ✨

What would you include in yours?

While we wait for our gear to be set up, we thought starting an online baby store might be the way to go!

We are thinking of selling all of the things that have been helpful to us in our first year of parenting!

This includes all things related to expressing and feeding ✨

Can you think of things you’d like to see in our online store?

Happy World Breastfeeding week ✨of course we know that fed is best but we just want to shout out to all the breastfeeding mummas this week 💜 it’s no easy feat and we know how damn hard it can be! 14 months feeding our son and still going (mostly because it’s just as hard to wean as it was to start breastfeeding, if not harder!). We love breastfeeding so much that we are starting a business because of it!

Probably one of the main attractions with the Milk Dust concept is STORAGE ✨

Say goodbye to your milk taking up a whole freezer drawer, you can store your precious Milk Dust on the shelf for YEARS! (Yes I said years..)

What’s even better, you don’t need to discard it after 4 months like you would with frozen milk if it’s unused 🤗 say buh-bye to wastage 👋🏼

Can you imagine how much easier it would be to go on holiday without worrying about transporting frozen or fresh expressed breast milk? 😍

Just pack your Milk Dust away as you would formula and it can stay on the shelf for years! No more worrying about freezer storage, communal kitchens, ice packs, airplane rules, power cuts or being stuck in traffic!

You can even go off the grid camping without worrying about pumping or your supply at the time 🏕🚢✈️

Let’s talk daycare! 🍼 our son has just started daycare and I am currently expressing milk in advance and attempting to transport it safely for them each week. I then need to trust that they can store it safely and prepare it for our babe without compromising the integrity of it.

I can’t help but think how much easier it would be to turn up with freeze-dried breastmilk (in powder form) so I know it’s able to be stored safely there (imagine a power cut?) and it is far easier to transport and prepare on their end.

Imagine it being able to be stored on their shelf for years and even potentially using it for subsequent babies! What a time saver!

This is just one small benefit of freeze-dried breast milk 💗 can you think of more?
